Several different studies are being done. We look forward to those reports, including the independent investigation by Ms. Sheila Weatherill. I think it is going to be very enlightening when that comes out in July. We look forward that.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1447465\" data-originallang=\"en\">Of course, the timeline could be looked at 100 different ways. I can assure the member that I was involved. CFIA made the recall in the early morning hours on the 17th, and I was notified at the beginning of business on the 18th. We began to take action. We will continue to do that to build a better food safety system in this great country.</p>",

Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 d'en face a travaill\u00e9 l\u00e0-dessus en comit\u00e9. Diff\u00e9rentes \u00e9tudes sont en cours. Il nous tarde de prendre connaissance des rapports, dont celui sur l'enqu\u00eate ind\u00e9pendante men\u00e9e par Sheila Weatherill. Je crois que ce rapport sera fort \u00e9clairant lorsqu'il sera publi\u00e9, en juillet. Nous avons bien h\u00e2te de le lire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1447465\" data-originallang=\"en\">\u00c9videmment, le d\u00e9roulement des \u00e9v\u00e9nements peut \u00eatre analys\u00e9 de 100 diff\u00e9rentes fa\u00e7ons. Je puis assurer au d\u00e9put\u00e9 que j'\u00e9tais actif. L'ACIA a proc\u00e9d\u00e9 au rappel le 17, aux petites heures du matin, et j'en ai \u00e9t\u00e9 avis\u00e9 \u00e0 mon arriv\u00e9e au travail le 18. Nous avons aussit\u00f4t pris des mesures. Nous continuerons d'agir pour renforcer le syst\u00e8me d'assurance de la salubrit\u00e9 des aliments de notre grand pays.</p>"
